getting back into the groove, I am almost back into a quilting life & getting normal groove. Our renovations are complete and the house has been cleaned top to bottom. Just a few pictures to hang and furniture to buy, but I have been able to do some sewing, whew.

Oh aand a lot of other things have happend since (gulp) July when I last posted. I did finish up my daugher's quilt for university.

I have more to post about our summer and early fall activities soon.

What have your been stitching in my long absence? (which I hope won't be so long this time)

Oh, I love the colors you used for her quilt! My niece headed to George Mason University this fall as a freshman and used similar colors for a quilt she made to take. It's a bittersweet time, isn't it?!? :)
